? Columbia State, April 20: The
state pension board holds Its final
meeting today to arrange for the distribution
of the $250,000 appropriated
by the general assembly. As soon as
all of the applications have been formally
approved, the lists having already
been prepared by Miss Kate Maher,
the efficient clerk, the money will be
sent at once to the clerks of court.
? Spartanburg, April 17: Harvey
Bradford, colored, charged with burglary,
entering the room of Miss Julia
Reed, a student of Converse college,
tonight two weeks ago, was convicted
today, the Jury returning a verdict late
this afternoon. The trial of Bradford
l attracted a great deal of Interest, the
court room being crowded all day long
with young college girls and ladies
of the city. The principal witness was
Miss Reed, the heroine of the night In
question. In a most dramatic manner
she described the midnight intruder
and told of the fierce struggle she had
with him and the bite she gave him,
causing him to flee. In his flight he
dropped his hat, which, with the bite
she gave him. served as a clue that
led to his arrest Harvey is a rough
looking negro, who lives in the outskirts
of the city. Under the verdict
he will be given a life sentence.
? A Washington special of Friday
| says: Senator Tillman, according to
letters recently received here, is exDected
to reach Washington Monday
morning when the senate meets to take
up the tariff bill for debate. It is uni
deratood that Senator Tillman is spec^
tally anxious to be here at that time,
because he has been requested to take
an active part in preventing M. W.
Floyd from being confirmed as postmaster
at Spartanburg. A long petition
was received here today from certain
citizens of Spartanburg protestr
ing against this appointment and asking
that everything possible be done
to prevent the nomination from being
confirmed. Senator Smith, who went
home yosterday on account of sickness
in his family, will also return in time
to take part in the proceedings of the
senate Monday. From all indications
Mr Finvri will Drobably be confirmed,
though It will necessarily take a considerable
length of time to do so, because
of the fight that Is expected to
be made.
? According to the Orangeburg News
there are certain people in Orangeburg
who are willing to pay the price for
bank stock when they want to get control
of a bank. The News says that
two factions have been trying to get
control of the People's Bank there.
The stock has a par value of $190 and
a market value of $160 the share. Last
_ Saturday it was discovered that there
^ were seven shares not held by either
faction, and of course the purchase of
this small block would give the purchaser
control. Up to that time $200
the share had been paid for the stock.
(The owner of the seven shares was a
shrewd man. H-s knew what was up
and would not fix a price. He wanted
both factions to make sealed bids.
This was done. The one who got the
stock bid $12,025 for the seven shares.
The other side bid only $2,000. The
winner certainly paid dear for the con%
trol, but he got it. And the man who
held the seven shares is over $10,000
better off than he ever dreamed he
would be.
? There is more trouble brewing at
Clemson college, with the indications
_ that President Mell might soon retire
" from the head of the institution. Captain
Minus, the third commandant of
the institution to resign in recent years,
is out in a statement to the press vigorously
attacking the president and
the board of trustees for failure and
refusal to uphold him in his repeated
attempts to establish and maintain discipline
at the institution. Those best
acquainted with the true conditions at
Clemson say that Dr. Mell has never
been more than nominally president as
it has always been possible to go behind
the president to the board of trustees.
and that similar conditions have
surrounded Captain Minus, the cadets
appealing to the president over his
shoulders. It was hoped that after the
. "April Fool" prank of nearly a hun*
dred cadets in the spring of last year,
followed by the dismissal of all cadets
engaged in it, although these cadets
were taken back the following session
that things would quiet down a bit, but
this new explosion changes the face
t of the situation materially.
9 ?Columbia special of Monday, to the
Charlotte Observer: Adjutant General
Boyd is out of the state on account
of illness and his assistant. Colonel
Brock, is in the upper section of the|
state on his spring Inspection tour, anu
for this reason no official statement
could be obtained today, but It seems
practically certain now that there will
be no summer encampments this year
of any of the three national guard
regiments of the state, on account of
requirements which the war department
is understood to have laid down
with reference to the Second regiment,
which was scheduled to go to Charleston
to take part in the coast defense
^ exercises, and which requirements the
Second will be unable to meet. The
Federal government was to pay the
cost of the Second's encampment, and
as there is not enough money to spare
to have encampments for all three regiments,
all of the encampments will
probably be called off and the money
used for equipment necessary to place
the national guard of the state in such
condition as to meet the Federal government's
requirements next spring for
continuing the appropriations from
Washington.
?Columbia, April 19: A preliminary
conference between Attorney General
? Lyon and the members of the dispensary
commission and its attorneys will
be held next Friday to discuss the further
work of the commission in regard
to winding up the affairs of the
defunct institution. It is expected that
in the meantime Gov. Ansel will prob
ably name the two members of the
commission to succeed Messrs. B. F.
Arthur and C. K. Henderson, who resigned
to take the receivership ordered
by Judge Pritchard. The meeting
Friday will be very Important and
there will probably be several others
during the coming week. The attorney
general does not think that any
action as to the distribution of claims
will be taken, however, until the official
mandate of the court Is received from
Washington. In the meantime it is
rumored that the whisky houses will
move for a rehearing before the supreme
court and thus attempt to delay
matters further. This can be done any
time within 30 days after the decision
has been rendered, but such a course
is not considered likely In view of the
sweeping opinion of the United States
supreme court, and even if it should
it would be necessary for a majority

? Columbia special of April 16, to
the Charlotte Observer: The funeral
of Gen. M. C. Butler, who died Wednesday
night in this city, was held this
morning in St. Peter's Catholic church
at 10 o'clock. The church was filled
with the friends and relatives of General
Butler and his family. The requiem
mass was said by Rev. B. W.
Fleming. Bishop Northrop, who came
up from Charleston for the funeral,
read the prayer for the dead, assisted
by Rev. T. J. Hegarty and Rev. Mr.
Hughes. The funeral sermon was
preached by Father Fleming, who had
been with General Butler frequently
during his last illness and who was
with him at the time of his death. He
paid an eloquent tribute to General
Butler's services as a soldier and
statesman, and spoke in affectionate
terms of him as a man. In his funeral
sermon over General Butler, the Rev.
Father Fleming gave this explanation
of how General Butler came to cnange
his faith: "When I went to Instruct
him In the teachings of the Catholic
church, I told him we began everything
with the Sign of the Cross, and
asked him to repeat after me, 'In the
name of the Father and of the Son
and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.' He
did'so with all the unction of his great
soul and body. I asked him one day
what had prompted him to change his
fiaith, and I say that with all kindness,
intending no hurt to your feelings, my
dear friends. He answered: 'The Little
Sisters of the Poor first drew my
attention to the Catholle church. Their
humble, holy lives, leaving home and
hearth to minister to the outcast, the
homeless, the aged, the forgotten of
the world.'" After the services the
body lay in state in the church, the
* " * ?
casket Demg coverea wnu ucauuiui
spring flowers. The burial will take
place at Edgefield tomorrow morning
in the Butler family graveyard. The
Interment services will be conducted
by Father Fleming. A squad from
Camp Hampton and the pall-bearers
will assemble at the church tomorrow
morning at 6 o'clock to accompany the
body to the train. The funeral procession
this morning from the home
of Dr. Knowlton to the church was
lead by a military escort from the
Richland Volunteers under command
of Capt Joseph R. Allen, and a squad
from this company will go to Edgefield
for the burial, which will be with
military honors.
? Washington, April 17: The presence
of a negro on the Llberlan commission,
which the government will send to Investigate
conditions in. the black republic,
may create a race issue to be
threshed out by the state and naval
department. The commission is to
sail on the scout cruisers Chester, Salem
and Birmingham, but complications
have arisen which have upset ail
arrangements. The negro member of
the commission is Emmett J. Scott,
private secretary to Booker Washington.
W. M. Shuster, chairman of the
commission, has already resigned.
Now comes unofficial news that Scott
will be assigned to the Birmingham
for the cruise. The officers of the Birmingham
are all southern men and
they are very much incensed that a
negro is to be forced on them. One of
them said today that if the negro was
assigned to his ship he would eat below
with the men and let the negro
have the officers mess room all to himself.

There Is A Reason '
P
During the first three months V
af 1909 more new business was writ- *
ten by Mutual Benefit Agents In South ?

rlod of the fifteen years since this
grand old company has been doing 11
business in the state, and more than n
twlrv* bm much as durlnff January. w
February and March of 1908, and ?
this In the face of the fact that It is
ilaimed that financial conditions are s!
not so good as previous to October,
1907, and also that more life companies
are seeking business In the
state than ever before. My personal
business during the three months just
ended was more than four times as s
great as in 1908. There must be substantlal
reasons for the Increase, don't *
you reckon? Well, there are. Tou
